Thank you for the CD of this years expo...its great to see what I missed this year. Familiar faces, the old school builders, the new products....and of course some shots of the NERBS that didnt quite match the background music. (lol) Your gift made me smile.

Mine arrived today and I even though I can't get to the expo in person, I can see what a great gathering it has become. I especially appreciate Mike and Rita sending me the CD. I know it is half way around the world and the cost adds up quickly. If there is anything I can do for you, please don't hesitate to ask.


Best Regards

Mike -
(and Fred) - First round will be on me in 2010 --- maybe the second and a few others as well. I really missed being there this year. Soon life will be back to a more normal pace. I'm still digging out from a backlog of projects and deliveries.
